| Method |
Stable isotope labelling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC). Newly synthesized RNA can be labelled with the nucleoside analogue 4-thiouridine (4sU). 4sU-containing mRNA can be purified and compared with the preexisting fraction to compute mRNA half-lives. |
| Comments |
NIH3T3 (mouse fibroblast) cells. Assuming the absence of technical and biological noise, this means
that ~40% of the variance in protein levels is explained by mRNA
levels—considerably more than previously thought. |
